At these prices the enhancment should come with a programmable elf who can turn the pages and make coffee in the morning.

Example:

Seeker
Jack McDevitt - Author

Seeker - Other formats:

Paperback: Mass Market: $7.99

eBook - Microsoft Reader: $24.95

eBook - Palm reader: $24.95

I can get the hardcover cheaper at Barnes and Nobles for cryin' out loud!
